It's All Falling Down
Reach the second crossroads.
This achievement is unlocked through story progression.
No Turning Back

The Face Of Blood
Meet the Red Skull Rando
This achievement is unlocked through story progression.
Happy Ruinion
Save Buddy.
This achievement is unlocked through story progression.
I Love You Son
Kill all the Rouletters.
After coming across the russian roulette location through story progression, continue to play until you've defeated all of the opponents (the last opponent requires two shots!) then speak with the owner to get your reward. I highly recommend saving before starting this achievement and then reloading after you've earned it, as the rewards are not worth losing that many party members (though the mags are good). Before you reload, be sure to leave the building and recruit Buckets as well to get two achievements in one.
Really? Hairmanity?
Kill the Men's Hair Club Presidents.
This achievement is unlocked through story progression.
No...
It can't be...
In the first part of the construction zone of Area 2, explore near the lower levels (screenshot coming soon). You will find a house with human's used as furniture. Proceed into the bathroom of the house with the secret stache to unlock this achievement.
There's Something Fishy...
Find the Fishmen.
This area is hidden within Area 2. Enter into the misty bog. Before the Bee's hideout, there will be a single square of water, too small for you to enter on a bike. Fall in and you'll get this achievement. While there be sure to recruit Harvey Alibastor and buy the Green Stuff for Carp. See the "Lawyer Fish Guy" and "Fish Guy" achievements.
The Doctor Is In The House
Kill the doctor.
In Area 2 in the Nice Neighborhood zone, in the 5th house, make your way to the basement and defeat the joy mutant to unlock this achievement.
Worth It
Learn the ways of the Bob Friday.
In Karate Village in area 2, after defeating the Dojo Buster you can purchase a scroll from Bob Friday for 1000 mags. The scroll does nothing but you'll unlock this achievement. I suggest saving before earning this achievement and then re-loading.
Look On The Brightside
Watch a well executed suicide.
On Garbage Island, continue through the zone until an enemy attacks you by blowing his own brains out to earn this achievement.
The Champ Is Here!
Break the Streak, win the title.
The wrestling zone is after Area 2 but just before Area 3. Complete all of the Eternal Champion quests, ending by defeating "Death Queen" to unlock this achievement. Please note that this will block off the Wrestling quests to you after, so be sure to finish the tag team championship first as well as any grinding before you complete this quest.
Arm-Shock 4 Life!
Win the tag titles.
In the ECW Wrestling zone, complete all of the Tag Team Champion quests.
Salvation Ends
Witness the fall of the Salvation Rangers.
This achievement requires completing the entire Salvation Rangers side quest. This begins after you first leave the Russian Roulette zone. You'll see a cutscene involving the Rangers and their first nemesis. Defeat the snake man to progress. Next you'll need to head to the construction zone of Area 2. Explore the lower sections of the construction site and you'll find the salvation rangers dealing with their enemy again. ♥♥♥♥ Dickson will join your party during the cutscene. Next you'll need to head to the desert zone of Area 2. You'll have to fight Demon-X who will destroy your entire party. After the cutscene head into the caves of the desert zone and find the Rangers again. Lastly you'll need to head to Area 3. In the seesaw zone of Area 3, near the end you can find the Ranger's who are now joy mutants. Only the Blue Ranger will attack. Defeat him to finally earn this achievement.
Hot Snow
Reach the Snowy Peak.
In Area 3, on the snowy mountain, after defeating Buffalo Van ♥♥♥♥, continue up the mountain past the hills of corpses until you come across the man on fire. Defeat him and earn this achievement.
Weekend Getaway
Find the relaxing researchers.
In Area 3's crossroads, there is a cave with wallpaper and various docile joy mutants. Travel to the end and get the map to Resort Island. Bring the map to the Henandez brother with a boat in Area 2 and use the map item. Travel to the island and earn this achievement.
Bye, I Guess...
Race Columbo.
In Area 3, connected to the Area's town you can find a motorcycle. Columbo will appear and you can race him. Win or lose, you'll unlock this achievement.
The End Is Nigh
Welcome to Hell.
This achievement is unlocked through story progression.
10-4 Good Buddy
Kill Satan.
After finding the truck keys in the Devil's Bathhouse, head back towards the wrestling area and continue to the right. Eventually an NPC will warn you about proceeding forward. Head to the back of the semi truck and unlock it to fight Satan. Note that he is arguably the toughest enemy in the game. I strongly recommend checking the walkthrough on tips to defeat him.

Finish with no arms.
Choose for Brad to lose both of his arms through decision points and finish the game.
Joyless End
It's too late to fight it...
Neither Brad nor his party member can use any joy (outside of the joy he's forced to take through cutscenes) through your playthrough. This is easiest to achieve on a Selfish playthrough where Brad keeps both arms. Also be sure to sell Joy through the game if this is your end goal for the free mags.
*Note: Playing on Pain Mode seems to bug this achievement, apparently you'll need to complete it on normal mode to unlock.
Joyful End
Giving in feels good. Have Brad and/or his party members take Joy over your playthrough. If your first playthrough was Joyless, simply load up your latest save and take Joy during the final battle to unlock this.
*Note: Playing on Pain Mode seems to bug this achievement, apparently you'll need to complete it on normal mode to unlock.
Sorry Master
The birth of Red Skull.
This achievement is unlocked by beating the game on Pain Mode. I strongly recommend following the walkthrough above to unlock this.
